I used crunchy peanut butter, substituted 1/3 cup cocoa powder for half of the flour and chocolate chips for the peanuts, and reduced baking powder to about 1/4 tsp. They got devoured... - 24 May 2006 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
Followed the directions exactly and they turned out great! Definately a keeper! I did add 2 tbsp of cocoa to give it a little chocolately flavor, just right! - 04 Oct 2006 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
I added another 1/2 cup of peanut butter to make it even more "peanut buttery". PLUS, I added 1 cup of Chocolate Chips! Tasted like a Peanut Butter cup. Very yummy! - 06 Jun 2006 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
